yup... and sales is just one aspect. Much fewer trucks will be needed to ship so many guns, postal service will lose a percentage of shipping, FFL holders will lose there share in transfer fee money, mom and pop gun shops will close due to a lack of demand. Lets face it. AR/AK rifles are the cornerstone of the american gun market. Without these, things will change. The only increase in gun sales we'll see is in 1911 pistols and revolvers due to them being of legal capacity. It will also reduce firearms research. Most of the advancements in military rifles have come from ideas that sportsmen on the hunt or in 3G comps have invented in this past decades. It's us civilian sportsmen that make better military rifles. Not military research guys. Military guys make bombs. It makes no sense...
Newer guns are modular and we can personalize them. I'm sure that market will dissipate as well.
